The educators manually review thousands of mobile apps available in the Google Play & Apple App Stores as well as connected TV (CTV) apps from the Roku Channel Store and Amazon Fire TV App Store using the COPPA Rule factors shown below & make those results available to the public at [ratings.pixalate.com](https://ratings.pixalate.com/). This post takes a look at a popular mobile app (1 million+ downloads) from the Google Play and Apple App Stores. Our reviewer discusses how the subjective factors set forth in the COPPA Rule apply to the app and factor into the reviewer's determination as to whether the app is child-directed or general audience (i.e., it is not targeting children). ## **Manually reviewed in this post** - [Fidget Toy Maker](https://ratings.pixalate.com/insight/apps/com.fidget.maker/GLOBAL/android/GLOBAL) (Google) [Fidget Toy Maker](https://ratings.pixalate.com/insight/apps/1586073147/GLOBAL/ios/GLOBAL) (Apple) * * ### The 10 COPPA Rule factors The teacher will indicate the factors they relied upon in their assessment using the 10 factors shown below that reflect the 10 child-directed factors in the [COPPA Rule](https://www.ftc.gov/legal-library/browse/rules/childrens-online-privacy-protection-rule-coppa). *![](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/30aNBVdKJcGRgal4gjbUy-oFUo-yJbGN9Voi59WjNO3ryRkv1RlTw3wMt4x8saP9c89PJbXjJfEH0E7Y9WmkmWc2vrJchbnFykl7ImkrRDBd4LXx5jEnpb27LcB76ZDCjOMJNmNSf03cMqfuqWF56XOwN4Mkc_yKXukaXRg7TNE3gwj_IZQIj5yp1gcf9w)* ### **Reviewed by: Crystal Pearson** ## **![Crystal Pearson](https://www.pixalate.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Crystal%20Pearson.png?width=781&height=439&name=Crystal%20Pearson.png)** ## **Manual Review: Fidget Toy Maker** ### Likely audience after manual review ### ![](https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/hA73oyS6nI_9KpCXOWfLZhHxUry4wNOjCmHnjBaDjMlOojctOrj_sDeMsjmjmwpW05VvPeF9YzzWAZbHCTHgn5GeLZfDdJJVdFsU1kga31R69iE2U1zX9-9yhbSHXiF4ho9xTYyEYJIRpF4AW33ralQ)![](https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/QwfLBhZTw5VlLAdH5DRk2KWzHTpEO9hfyrF1t1CyercUsMD_QQUTC1txKExGv2xjqX4wberlFInpuQKn5wLCbdhllJYTUSkWwnipMhzDfNQMv8OC75GQTH-eRwRaGda6jOfA6kfNO1EYZq_771xjyg) - **Developer: **[Geisha Tokyo, Inc.](https://ratings.pixalate.com/discovery/apps/list/android/all/GLOBAL?developerName=Geisha%20Tokyo,%20Inc.) (Google), [Geisha Tokyo Inc.](https://ratings.pixalate.com/discovery/apps/list/ios/all/GLOBAL?developerName=Geisha%20Tokyo%20Inc.) (Apple) - ******Google Bundle ID: ******com.fidget.maker - **Apple Bundle ID: **1586073147 - [Privacy Policy](https://www.geishatokyo.com/privacy.html) - ****Crystal’s Take: *****Fidget Toy Maker is a colorful game where players can make as many toys as possible.* ### COPPA factors used to determine audience ![](https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/bw9mTGDNiXaRon82u69JVFCNqbgNsIHtkRscbzwRf9bVVwV5WT9zftm828sBpulGi1xhNbH8le4FTOs2IZs17tEs7JHhZ7NGo9TgXSUgLGm2kSx1BuMV6GQ37GJTWYRD6AlDDw2X1Wzwm7LMMH-_hlU) and ![](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/HVa3vMpL8f2fK8-WO5zW2MxdXJgymC4_s_BVQqolTITf3jMp6U8UoZyxEsSNB3wvlbc01FPAltfagOxxz_yQgz995CNxFrvDWjdZIn7Qf7X9ZROtxf-Riu5KWLToxhICNbURjX4mwi4WtuFiGdaqvGw) and ![](https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/lfNpsMWlzft4cCRof15SgXO9cciisdgGueEqixgqYhm0HjvV9JRNk9lTzv0YDb-S9pUrLO1OqV197OzDLiRMeTo4n-5FkUgKXdAjqs5HKnjnUceV_9G8nzWC6tLJIhOJ89gh2GVKkRP3g_uJ3qVzqZU) The gameplay screenshots for Fidget Toy Maker show that the visual content is directed at children. The player creates pop toys by dragging the colorful material and placing it in the toy-shaped mold. Once they are placed in the mold the player presses them into the shape and afterwards pops the bubbles. The subject matter has characteristics directed to children with words such as toy and phrases like, ”pop the bubbles.” The sounds in the game are bells and whistle to create an immersive game experience. ![](https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/7GqO-miStaV5HozrQOwUAg4CPqfM7LCGK371gAFQtTf6ug8nx8FtdmTLAPFD_DMMcaRO_6vZWeqwlSd6UyTvBanQcKFZ5tJKB3Nv3wCOErPYrFZ6FDMaT5J8BfeUmigiSTf6gEb9cZV_iYUtpECKpmY) Some advertisements show between each gameplay and at the bottom of the screen while playing. These ads are Wordscapes, Feelsy, Audible, Kindle, and CNN. Most of the ads are directed to a mixed audience and others are directed to adults. ![](https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/JGvwtfMQKDjEfCbOhRLu2hbOz4kfmj0phmuyDXMDdqRA0H3C26o76xx6XvsB2uQFfmYUBdtgAu0WZw48i5OYJWKSd6eCCV3oft7GuSukV9M9jGclCJhBSsdyUNzsp8E8UJl_61eyUbzNkQCjqmq8p6k) The game is rated E for Everyone in the Google play store and 9+ in the Apple Store. There is no age gate. The app shows evidence that children do use the app. A review posted on google play in November of 2021 says, “I’m 8 years old and I’m using my mom’s red phone and this game is awesome.” Another google play review in October of 2021 says, “ ..I’m 10 years old…I should be talking about how good the game is…” Privacy: The developer’s [privacy policy](https://www.geishatokyo.com/privacy.html) states, “we do not knowingly collect or solicit personal information from anyone under 16." **Screenshots of Fidget Toy Maker** **![](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/vRDUDRah2oTHVbqFtAT8-ZI_2aGdX7PxaD6AAgSGCbW1mBcglvwtpRe4J6BpxwOtawhRUAfP4EDvkv_SklukbavwYaM2MjYArm1Ki7p1gDEJBjd-l7rwYka6qryB-n0nOBDqlDf5rJM4fbfRz-wyF1I)** ### **![](https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/cNrpm21gIxr3ScU6HKsyN5yBcDgqXWKmVcqAzYMIARlr-FuOTZlmaWNOVZURELnHAEJISk2pfALD3NaEyNBVJJfcToCcQAGBmH2Gu22fcT_HTHUF_SERJCVKv0jbU5Ewa3MdCayO0f7XggnbqBR4t1U)** ### **![](https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/RRxqYX2YtpjSMoVcZbap8RAprIOB4G7M3ZC9jeerrDqGRlj7fYRdImqKmYUiFhV2-9glb5lArcoh0sSlP7AzPOMMpdo0KPsiaS1-S_8bJ4sStvVos2DHRsC3cI93m9wzvugKyp92MlATWJQ_WnXWl9w)** **![](https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/MtV7SpxPXC2l9NTUvkWDKP24MIXIp8UaFlyOVyI4gk1mt__2NR-VJ7FyCuheCtDfDB0y47FYq0OXsENqpmPxqH9IMl4yYxb-ucOsAjaR7bVeqSS77Up2qk2CNM8T_gndq7J4de3ERH-iEM9Trv2NNuc)** ### About Pixalate’s Trust & Safety Advisory Board Pixalate’s Trust and Safety Advisory Board was created to bring in individuals with experience using child-directed apps in the classroom to review and assess which apps are child-directed.

Per the MRC, “'Fraud' is not intended to represent fraud as defined in various laws, statutes and ordinances or as conventionally used in U.S. Court or other legal proceedings, but rather a custom definition strictly for advertising measurement purposes. Also per the MRC, “‘Invalid Traffic’ is defined generally as traffic that does not meet certain ad serving quality or completeness criteria, or otherwise does not represent legitimate ad traffic that should be included in measurement counts. Among the reasons why ad traffic may be deemed invalid is it is a result of non-human traffic (spiders, bots, etc.), or activity designed to produce fraudulent traffic.” ** ** *By clicking Download and entering your email address, you are agreeing to our [Terms of Use](https://www.pixalate.com/terms) and have read and acknowledge our [Privacy Policy](https://www.pixalate.com/hubfs/2024-08-20_Pixalate_Privacy_Policy.pdf). *Copyright © 2025 Pixalate** * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * × ## Subscribe to the Pixalate Blog The first step in ad fraud prevention.
